Huge thanks to the KimKim team and especially to Sarah for planning such a fabulous vacation. I was trying to book a trip without any help to see all the top sights in Croatia and there is absolutely no way I would have had such an amazing experience if I hadn't sought out KimKim and Sarah's guidance. From the adventures to the accommodations to the guides, everything was top notch. Special thanks to Mario who drove us to so many places, kept us smiling and gave us great restaurant recommendations and who also taught us so much about Croatia! I am so glad to have met you all and very grateful for all you did to make sure we had a fantastic time.

Hotel Reviews
Amfora Hvar Grand Beach Resort
Hvar

The only reason this score is lower is because we hardly spent time at the hotel because we had many activities to do.

Nice pool area
Location
Location was good, about 10min walk to the centre. Room was quite small
Airbnb "Old City & Sea View Dubrovnik"
Dubrovnik

Unbelievable view from the balcony - great way to start each morning with a cup of coffee overlooking the old city and Lokrum island! Buga was so friendly and made us feel right at home.

The wine tasting was a fun experience, though low key and quite rustic compared to other areas. Visiting Ston and eating lunch at Konoba Bakus was the highlight. Nothing like fresh mussels and oysters right from the doorstep!

It's a long drive from Split but totally worth it! The waterfalls are incredible to see in person and there is plenty of walking/hiking for nature lovers. We were lucky that there weren't too many people that day so we didn't feel crowded at all.

Thank you to Stepan and Ivanka for hosting us on this adventure. The waters were choppy so we couldn't jump in all the swim spots, but of course safety wins :) We had a great time touring Vis island and seeing the incredible blue caves. Thank you for having drinks for us to stay refreshed!
